With leadership from Dr. Lewington, the Rawlings Sport Business Management Degree was devised a decade ago and is the only corporate named degree program in the world. John continues to teach Global Business on Maryville's MBA program, and has served on the board of the World Affairs Council of St. Louis.  And he is, of course, a member of our St. Louis Branch ESU.
